Florida congressman Matt Gaetz wants to bomb endangered whales in the Gulf of Mexico.One of Florida's great hidden gem cultural and tourist attractions is Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens in Delray Beach. As beautiful as the gardens are today, the history of Japanese immigration to Florida and the garden's founding are equally interesting. Curator of education at Morikami Wendy Lo joins us to discuss.

In this podcast episode, host Shayna Price explores the world of Japanese dry gardens, or karesansui, with guest Heather Grzybek, the garden curator at the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens in Florida. Heather shares her background and journey into Japanese garden design, highlighting the unique aspects of their contemporary take on a dry garden there. They discuss the challenges of maintaining dry gardens in the US, including the impact of weather, tools, and techniques for raking patterns, and the unconventional use of dry gardens for initiatives like Gardens for Peace. Heather emphasizes that the heart of dry gardens lies in simplicity, elegance, restriction, and the ability to provide a sense of peace and quiet in a chaotic world.

Florida is just FULL of festivals, fairs, and art shows all year 'round. And, in this adventure, we visit three festivals that REALLY couldn't be much more different, and we split up our attack. In Part 1, Glenn flies solo at one of Florida's biggest events--the Sun 'n' Fun International Fly-in in the lovely town of Lakeland. It's the 2nd largest airshow in the world! Then, Glenn drove down to Delray Beach and joined Jaime for the Hatsume Japanese Fair at the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens, which is the largest Japanese festival in Florida. We were surprised by an old friend from a previous episode, and Glenn got an education in Anime and the sub-culture that goes along with it. Listen in... Then, in Part 2 (Episode 18c), Jaime hits up all the crawfish and beer at the Cajun Crawfish & Music Festival in Palm Beach Gardens on April 20th.
